Hey, I’m Benjamin Wührer. Aspiring game designer with an interest in tech & level design. I have been interested in games since I was little and have been working with them professionally since I was 18. I’m most interested in game design and it’s various disciplines like Level Design, but I also get excited about the technical side.
How did I get into game design?
That is a good question. And there is an answere for it. But reading is boring so watch my Youtube video on that topic… Yes I do Youtube videos:
You want to know more about me?
Well, there’s no video for that. But I can tell you a little bit:
I think it came across that I am interested in video games, game design, level design and programming. My favorite game is Mass Effect 2 by the way. Or Dragon Age Origins. Always can’t decide betweem the two.
Apart from that, I love to do sports. So far tennis but I am open to new and also like to go swimming, jogging and soon start medieval sword fencing.
If you want to know more about me, well then just ask me directly. Write me a mail. Contact me on LinkedIn.
